So, why shouldn’t your electronics live up to those standards?Now they can with JENSEN Heavy Duty Radios & Accessories and Voyager Camera systems.Our hands on Engineering Research and Development team builds quality into our JENSEN & Voyager products from the beginning by expertly designing each product from the ground up and validating all designs through extensive testing that is primarily conducted in our own on-site test lab. Therefore, JENSEN Heavy Duty Radios & Accessories and Voyager Camera Systems offer MORE durability and performance than you would expect from standard automotive electronics.

Some of the exclusive engineering tests that we perform on our products include the following:

High/Low Operating Temperature

Long-Duration product exposure to operational temperature extremes and rapid temperature cycles that are experienced in outdoor mobile applications. In addition, we test for High humidity introduced at high-temp to test the effectiveness of circuit corrosion protection (conformal coating).

Temperature/Vibration Chamber

Long duration product exposure to constant random frequency operational vibration and non-operational vibration to simulate rugged road conditions. Simultaneous temperature cycle and vibration exposure are also conducted for additional data that is relevant to detecting potential material/component weaknesses and calculating product life expectancy.

High/Low Storage Temperature

Ensures our products will perform even after prolonged periods of storage with no power in extreme hot or cold temperatures.

RF Performance Testing

RF performance is central to the user experience for many of our products. The RF Performance test ensures that our products keep clean signals in and the bad signals out, so that users are always left with a steady signal without outside interference. We not only test for high level RF performance during product design, but we also take a random sampling from each production lot and test it to ensure performance consistency. A battery of over 80 performance tests are conducted to analyze and validate RF and audio performance.

Electrostatic Discharge

The last thing you need is for your radio to quit due to accidental static shock. That’s why our products go through the extensive Electrostatic Discharge Test on all exposed control areas as well as I/O connections so they can withstand the most severe static build up. Shocking, isn’t it?

Load Dump

Severe electrical environments are relatively common mobile applications. We understand these environments and what it takes to protect electronics that will be exposed to them. That’s why all of our products include specific and significant front-end circuit protection and filtering that is proven to withstand the toughest electrical environments. The Load Dump Tests puts destructive pulses (spikes) to simulate the sudden disconnection of the battery from the alternator while the alternator is generating current to load the battery. Such Load Dump pulses are high energy pulses with a high potential of destruction ensuring that our electronics are protected.

Reverse Polarity

The Reverse Polarity test uses a car battery to test the durability of the product when the (+) and (–) cables are accidentally reversed.

Inductive Load Switching

Tests product well above and below the average waveform to ensure that it can withstand the extreme fluctuations.
